Job Chapter 19 KJV
King James Version, Holy Bible
1 Then Job answered and said,
2 How long will ye vex my soul, and break me in pieces with words?
3 These ten times have ye reproached me: ye are not ashamed that ye make yourselves strange to me.
4 And be it indeed that I have erred, mine error remaineth with myself.
5 If indeed ye will magnify yourselves against me, and plead against me my reproach:
6 Know now that God hath overthrown me, and hath compassed me with his net.
Job Chapter 19 (Old Testament)
7 Behold, I cry out of wrong, but I am not heard: I cry aloud, but there is no judgment.
8 He hath fenced up my way that I cannot pass, and he hath set darkness in my paths.
9 He hath stripped me of my glory, and taken the crown from my head.
10 He hath destroyed me on every side, and I am gone: and mine hope hath he removed like a tree.
11 He hath also kindled his wrath against me, and he counteth me unto him as one of his enemies.
12 His troops come together, and raise up their way against me, and encamp round about my tabernacle.
Job Chapter 19 (Old Testament)
13 He hath put my brethren far from me, and mine acquaintance are verily estranged from me.
14 My kinsfolk have failed, and my familiar friends have forgotten me.
15 They that dwell in mine house, and my maids, count me for a stranger: I am an alien in their sight.
16 I called my servant, and he gave me no answer; I intreated him with my mouth.
17 My breath is strange to my wife, though I intreated for the children's sake of mine own body.
18 Yea, young children despised me; I arose, and they spake against me.
19 All my inward friends abhorred me: and they whom I loved are turned against me.
20 My bone cleaveth to my skin and to my flesh, and I am escaped with the skin of my teeth.
21 Have pity upon me, have pity upon me, O ye my friends; for the hand of God hath touched me.
22 Why do ye persecute me as God, and are not satisfied with my flesh?
23 Oh that my words were now written! oh that they were printed in a book!
24 That they were graven with an iron pen and lead in the rock for ever!
25 For I know that my redeemer liveth, and that he shall stand at the latter day upon the earth:
26 And though after my skin worms destroy this body, yet in my flesh shall I see God:
27 Whom I shall see for myself, and mine eyes shall behold, and not another; though my reins be consumed within me.
28 But ye should say, Why persecute we him, seeing the root of the matter is found in me?
29 Be ye afraid of the sword: for wrath bringeth the punishments of the sword, that ye may know there is a judgment.
JOB Chapter 19: My Redeemer Lives
Memory verse: Job 19:25 For I know that my redeemer liveth, and that he shall stand at the latter day upon the earth:
This is a remarkable declaration of faith made by Job despite his extreme suffering. He says, "I know that my redeemer lives, and that in the end he will stand on the earth." The words of Job indicate his strong confidence that God is his Redeemer and that he can believe in God's ultimate plan despite all of his hardships. He is convinced that God will one day justify him, make everything right, and restore him.
Job knew that God was his Redeemer, and that even if his present circumstances were difficult, there was hope for the future. We are reminded of the potency of faith when faced with difficulty. We may experience extreme suffering and adversity, like Job did, but we may cling to the conviction that God is with us and that He is orchestrating everything for our good. Even though we don't fully comprehend God's plan, we can have faith in it because we know that our Redeemer is still alive.
